ANSWER
Answered 2021-Mar-26 at 16:18It turns out (explained to me by a Chromium dev) that the overhead of adding an intersection observer to each of the 100k elements (which Chromium does for content-visibility:auto
elements) is expensive, and so it's not really designed for such a large number of elements.
It's possible that browser developers will make their algorithms more efficient in the future, but currently the best approach if you've got a lot of elements is to nest them into blocks (perhaps 1000 rows per block) which themselves have content-visibility:auto

I am trying to use python's scrappy to extract course catalog information from a website.

QUESTION
I have hit a wall with my tkinter built GUI wherein I am trying to have a time consuming function run on a button click that also updates several elements in my GUI at the same time. At the moment the function hasn't been built/implemented, so I am using a placeholder function that essentially just counts up to 1,000,000 (I have also used time.sleep(10) in other attempts).
The program is essentially designed to allow the user to choose an operation at the menu, and once chosen, the window changes to the operation screen and begins running the first function of that operation. Once that has completed, the user should be able to click a next button to run the next function. An indicator on the screen lets the user know which function they are on.
When I run from the menu screen however, the GUI hangs and does not update to the operation screen until the first function is complete. When I click the next button, the indicator does not update to the correct function until said function has completed.
From reading up on this, I figure my solution is going to probably involve using .after() or threading, however I have attempted to use both these options and I cant seem to get either of them working.
Bare in mind this is minimally functional code, so its pretty scrappy, but it demonstrates the issue I am running into. The chainMeta list is an external JSON list that will contain details for external python scripts that will be designed to boot up and operate functions within docker containers.
self.test() is essentially a placeholder for the time consuming scripts that will be specific to each node. node1.txt in the chainMeta is a placeholder for one of these scripts.
...ANSWER
Answered 2020-Sep-23 at 05:39I'll assume you need threading. The only other thing you need to know is that in event driven programming you need to make a new function for every step. So that means you need a function for whatever action you want to run when the process ends, instead of just adding that action to the end of the run function.
QUESTION
I am writing a project from the Automate The Boring Stuff book. The task is the following:
Image Site Downloader
Write a program that goes to a photo-sharing site like Flickr or Imgur, searches for a category of photos, and then downloads all the resulting images. You could write a program that works with any photo site that has a search feature.
Here is my code:
...ANSWER
Answered 2020-Jul-26 at 11:34First off - scraping 4 million results from a website like Flicker is likely to be unethical. Web scrapers should do their best to respect the website from which they are scraping by minimizing their load on servers. 4 million requests in a short amount of time is likely to get your IP banned. If you used proxies you could get around this but again - highly unethical. You also run into the risk of copyright issues since a lot of the images on flicker are subject to copyright.
If you were to go about doing this you would have to use Scrapy and possibly a Scrapy-Selenium combo. Scrapy is great for running concurrent requests meaning you can request a large number of images at the same time. You can learn more about Scrapy here:https://docs.scrapy.org/en/latest/
The workflow would look something like this:
- Scrapy makes a request to the website for the html - parse through it to find all tags with class='overlay no-outline'
- Scrapy makes a request to each url concurrently. This means that the urls won't be followed one by one but instead side by side.
- As the images are returned they get added to your database/storage space
- Scrapy (maybe Selenium) scrolls the infinitely scrolling page and repeats without iterating over already checked images (keep index of last scanned item).
This is what Scrapy would entail but I strongly recommend not attempting to scrape 4 million elements. You would probably find that the performance issues you run into would not be worth your time especially since this is supposed to be a learning experience and you will likely never have to scrape that many elements.
